'This is the first cookery book to be published under the now world-famous pseudonym which conceals the identity of John and Phyllis Cradock. For its contents the authors have selected some of the recipes which have found particular favour with friends at home and with their vast stage and television public. They are chosen essentially because they are in constant use, do no call for ingredients that are hard to obtain, and can be easily prepared before or even during the meal.'
